Toyota just dropped some awesome updates for the Urban Cruiser Hyryder in 2025, and it’s got everyone buzzing. It is a slick new All-Wheel Drive (AWD) automatic trim with a bunch of fresh features and a starting price of just Rs 11.34 lakh. Let’s break it down.
What’s the Big Deal?
Toyota’s compact SUV is leveling up for 2025 with better comfort, safety, and tech. The price? It’s gone up by Rs 20,000 from last time, but trust me, the upgrades are worth it. Starting at Rs 11.34 lakh (ex-showroom), this ride is packed with goodies, even in the lower variants.
Fresh Looks & Cool Vibes
The Hyryder isn’t just about performance; it’s got style too! Some trims now rock dual-tone colors—think flashy combos that turn heads. Plus, the speedometer got a makeover, making it super easy to read while you cruise.
Inside the Ride: Comfy & High-Tech
Step inside, and it’s like a mini upgrade party! Higher variants now boast an 8-way power driver’s seat (hello, comfort!), ventilated front seats to keep you cool, rear sunshades, and ambient lighting for that chill vibe.
You’ll also find a fancy Air Quality Index (AQI) monitor and a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) in select models. Oh, and every Hyryder now has 15W USB-C ports and LED reading lights—charging and chilling just got easier!
Safety First, Always
Toyota’s not messing around with safety. Every Hyryder now comes with six airbags—driver, co-driver, front side, and curtain—standard across all trims. Earlier, the base E and S models only had two, so this is a big win! Plus, some automatic trims get an electronic parking brake (EPB) for smoother stops.
New V AT AWD: Power Meets Smoothness
Here’s the star of the show: the new V AT AWD variant!
Toyota ditched the old 5-speed manual for a slick 6-speed automatic in this AWD trim. It’s a smart move to stand out from its cousin, the Maruti Grand Vitara, which sticks to a manual AWD.
More gears, more fun, right?
Engine Options: Pick Your Power
Mild Hybrid Magic
The mild-hybrid Hyryder runs on a 1.5-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine pumping out 103 hp and 136.8 Nm of torque. You can grab it with a manual or automatic in 2WD, but the AWD version is AT-only. With a little help from a 12V starter generator, Toyota says it can hit 21.12 kph—pretty solid mileage!
Strong Hybrid Beast
The hybrid version? - It’s got a 1.5-litre, 3-cylinder petrol engine (92hp, 122Nm) teamed up with an electric motor and a 0.76kWh battery. Together, they churn out 116 hp, sent to the front wheels via an e-CVT. The best part? A whopping 27.7kpl mileage—fuel bills, who?
Overall, from the new AWD automatic trim to six airbags and fancy interiors, the 2025 Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder is a steal, starting at Rs 11.34 lakh. Whether you’re into tech, safety, or just a smooth ride, this SUV’s got your back. So, what do you think—ready to hit the road?
